Customer Reviews

A wonderful gift for any tea-lover

I was given this book as a going-away gift from a group of fellow tea-lovers, and enjoyed it so much, I ordered this copy to give as part of a bridal shower gift. The ideas for various types of tea parties were great and very do-able. It also has wonderful recipes, party favor ideas and lovely illustrations. A great, affordable gift for any tea lover.

Great ideas and lovely illustrations!

What a beautiful book! The pictures are so beautiful and dreamy; the book is great, but the pictures really make it special. Quotes on friendship and facts about tea are also scattered over the pretty pages. For each month a different "friendship" tea is outlined. They are all about celebrating a different theme with friends. Ideas include "Nature" in July, "Laughter" in September, "Togetherness" in June, "Family" in December, and more. In case you're not sure how to get started on the planning for each tea, there are suggestions for how to decorate, what to serve (including tasty recipes!), and ideas for activities. After the blurb about the tea, there "Something Delicious" (recipes!), "Something to Make" (from napkin holders to a tea cozy), and "Something to Think About". Each has a section about the setting with all kinds of ideas and also a column with "Fun Friendship Facts" pertinent to that month's tea. This is a great book to use again and again. It's all about enjoying people, because really, that's what a tea party is about. Slowing down, paying attention to little things, and taking the time to care. Have a cup of tea with someone!

It was just what I was looking for

I was very happy with the quickness of delivery, and the book was just what I expected.

Great gift

I gave this book as a gift to another tea drinking friend of mine. She told me that she loved the heart warming messages that the book has to offer. There are also several tasty recipes in this book that she says she is interested in trying. I found that the beautiful illustrations were definately something to marvel at. This book is a great gift idea for anyone who enjoys a good cup of tea.
